Meeting with our freight forwarding-agent partners from around the world is always a great learning opportunity.  This year’s Premier Cargo Alliance conference was held in Madrid, Spain and Universal Logistics was represented by Debbie McGuire, Director – Freight Solutions; Cathy Fong, Manager – Freight Pricing along with Mark and Paul Glionna from the Executive team.

During the 3-day conference, we were able to meet with over 45 people from 22 different forwarding companies representing 33 countries – some we have worked with for years, others we were meeting for the first time.  “Understanding the unique challenges in each country along with the core strengths of each partner allows us to offer the most viable routing options and best freight solutions for our clients”, says Debbie McGuire.

If you are shipping internationally and looking for ocean or air freight options and pricing, please contact Cathy Fong, Manager – Freight Pricing.

Quick Tip #46
Issue Express Bills of Lading instead of Originals and avoid delays and unnecessary costs
